Publication number: 20140359327Abstract: A technique for controlling a power supply of an electronic apparatus, which makes it possible to positively cool the inside of the apparatus after turning off a main switch of the apparatus, thereby making it possible to reduce unnecessary power consumption. A battery is rechargeable by an AC power supply. A fan cools the apparatus by being driven by power supply from the AC power supply or the battery. A CPU of a system controller determines a power supply off time of the apparatus according to a state of the apparatus when the main switch is turned off. When the determined power supply off time is reached, the power supply controller switches the power supply from the AC power supply to the battery to continue driving the fan. Further, when the state of the apparatus satisfies predetermined conditions, the power supply controller stops driving of the fan.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 28, 2014Publication date: December 4, 2014Applicant: CANON KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Hiroki Matsushima
